Cure for Insomnia.

had frequently noticed that when
engaged in deep thought, particularly at
night, there seemed to be something like
compression of the eyelids, the upper
one especially, and the eyes themselves
apparently turned upward, as if looking
in that direction. This invariably
occurred, and the moment that, by an
effort I arrested the course of thought
and freed the mind from the subject with
which it vas engaged the eyes resumed
their natural position and the compression
of the lids ceased.
Now, it occurred to me one night that
1 would not allow the eyes to turn
upward, but kept them determinedly in
the opposite position, as if looking down
and having done SO for short time, ]

thoughts with which it had been occu'

a WOlnan's Courage

Dorothea X. Dix had no fear of the
insane, and the power Of her voice over
them was very remarkable. During a
visit of inspection to one of the asylums
of her own founding she expressed a wish
to enter the basement which was locked.
The keeper told her that only the fercest
maniaces were confined there, and that
her life would be endangered by going
where they were. She said she had no
fear, and insisted upon entering. Tie
reluctantly admitted her. pointing out
the man particularly to be avoided. She
at once approached the poor maniac,
whose hand was stretched through the
bars of his cell as if to seize her. She
took the hand, and in quiet voice full
of controlling power began to talk with
him as if he were rational being. She
expressed her sympathy for him and her
desire to help him, and held his atten.
ton for some time. At length her hand
and arm, from the effects of his tight
grip, began to ache violently. She told
him of it an asked him to release her.
He said ne would if she would come
again, which condition being agreed to,
he let her hand 60 and she went away
with the astonished keeper.
Once when driving with only boy
for her escort through an unfrequented
road in one of the Southern States, her
carrisge was stopped by highwayman
who, at the point Of pistol, demanded
her money. With perfect calmness she
told him that of course he could have her
money, but that if he took it he would
also take from her the power to do the
errand of mercy on which she had started
and informed him of the nature of that
errend. The man gazed at her while she
spoke, with bewildered expression he
dropped his hand and told her that he
did not want her money, and that be had
seen her before; that she had read and
talked to him in prison. She said she
was sorry that it had done no good. He
then confessed that he resolved to follow
her advice, but that after leaving the
prison he was taunted with being jail
bird; he had no home, no friends and no
money, and so he got discouraged and
went back to his old life and expected to
get back to prison in time. Her heart
was touched with pity, and there on that
lonely road, not knowing but that the
man had accomplices near, she pleaded
with him as he stood before her, revolver
in hand. She told him that there was
yet time for him to take good stand
among his fellow men and that she would
be his friend. Then, taking out her
well.flled purse, of which he few min
utes before would so gladly have robbed
her, she drew out fivc.dollar bill which
with great difficulty she persuaded him
to accept. Then, giving him more
kind counsel and bidding him goodbye,
she drove on unharmed.

Give the Babies Water.

The St. Louis Medical and Surgical
Journal says: "Dr. Touissaint, in an
article in the Union Mclicaie dc Canada,
calls attention to the fact that milk does
not satisfy the thirst Of babies. 1t ap-
peases hunger, but it frequently intensi'
fes thirst and the author maintains
that it is this very thirst that causes
healthy children, raised altogether at the
breast, to cry SO frequently and so yio-
lently. We have seen peeyish, fretful

nurse and mother had in vain tried with.

Blaine Losing Ground.

1t does not look as much like Mr..
Blaine in 'SS as it did. The political
situation of the Republican camp is
changing. Six months ago it looked
like Mr.. Blaine would have walk over
for the nomination, but I repeat that q
change has occurred. Here in Washing
ton the change is surprising. Republi'
cans who were red hot for Blaine are
now saying that perhaps it would be
mistake to again nominate him, and Re.
publicans with Blaine leanipgs are now
for either one of the Shermans, General
Sheridan, Allison, Hawley or Gresham
in preference to the Plumed knight.
Out in the country the gradual diminish
ing of the Blaine sentiment is noticeable.
Leading Republicans are speaking boldly
out against Blaine or any other man
having q mortgage on the presidential
nomination. This change of feeling is
significant, for it means that the Repub'
licans are satisfied that they cannot beat
Mr.. Cleveland with Mr.. Blaine, and pro.
pose to bring out another man. This is
about the size of it.-Courier-Jownal.

a Just Tribute.

Justice Miller, of the Supreme Court
Of the United States, is Republican in
politics, but he is not blind partisan.
He was one of the speakers at the Grand
Army banquet in st. Louis. and respon.
ded to the toast "To the president of the
United States" In doing so Justice
Miller said be did not approve of Mr..
Cleveland's election, and expected to
cast his next presidential vote for a Re-
publican, but added: II have the cour.
age, and I say in the presence of this
meeting of the Grand Army of the Re.
public, that Grover Cleveland is an
honest man, pure man, to whose skirts
no corruption belongs, and who intends
to do right according 10 the best lights
that God has given him." Justice Miller
closed by urging the Grand Army men
to "givc President Cleveland credit for
honesty of purpose and good intentions"
in any position he might assume, and to
remember that he occupies the place
with honor which Washington held,
which Jefferson held, which Grant has
held, which Lincoln has heid.-BaNimore

The Business Instinct.

Some interesting letters were published
in the SIN of yesterday morning, in
which suggestions were given by success
full business men about the best way to
acquire wealth. Gen. Butler, P. 7. Bar
mum, Erastus Wiman, and Henry Faxon
are the writer's of these letters, and most
successful business men have they been.
Each began life without dollar, and
each in very diverse pursuits has accumu-
lated vas; possessions.
Though the suggestions they give differ
somewhat, they all agree upon this point
though none fthem directly speak of it,
and that is that the first prime qualiGca
for business success is an aptitude for
making money and for using what is
made so that accumulation will follow.
Very many able men have made large
sums of money at labor for which they
have special abilities, and yet have not
been able to accumulate competency
Henry Ward Beccher was able to earn
very large sums, and it has been estimat.
ed that in the course of his life he had
received nearly 81 900, 900 for his services
and yet he was not money.maker, and
was often put to personal annoyance.
We know of men who earn large sal.
aries, from ten to fifteen thousand dollars
o year, who are always moro or less em.
barrassed, and each year find themselves
a little behind. So that the earning
capacity of man is not test of hi:
moneymaking ability. Ir. Jay Gould
is said to believe that the ability 10 make
money cannot be acquired, but is natural
and we once heard very successful
accumulation say that the money maker
meaning the man who not only receives
but accumulates, is, like the poet. born
and not made, and business instinc
requires but little training.
So that it comes to this: the young
man who is capable of acting upon the
interesting aud valuable suggestions thai
these successful men have given may
make up his mind that he has the bust
ness instinct.

Cured by Faith Alone.

A reliable physician in Danbury re.
lates q remarkable case of curing
woman who had been unable 10 utter
syllable in two years. She had been
treated by number of doctors for her
loss Of voice, but to no purpose. This
physician satisfied himself that there was
no disease of the organ of speech, or any
arrangement. He concluded that she
could speak if only she would be inAuenc.
ed to exert the will power. From a con-
versation with her, carried on in writing,
he discovered that she had great faith in
miraculous cures, and thought she could
only be relieved in some such way. He
found, too, that she was superstitious.
lie concluded to try the effect Of little
mummery on her. Accordingly one
morning when visiting her he sat down by
a table and leaned his head down upon
his hands for some FIVE minutes without
speaking, as if in wrapt meditation. He
suddenly jumped up and told the woman
that he was now right: that he was going
to cure her on a certain day. He then
gave her minute directions in respect to
it. He told her that on the day he should
come to the house at 10 A. NJ; that he
should first give three raps upon the
window, and then he should 60 to the
front door and give two raps: that when
the door opened he would be found
standing with both hands upon the door
post and his head leaning upon them
that the door to her room must be opened
wide, and that he would walk in with
measured tread, and when he got to her
bedside he should say, Good morning."
and that she would answer in reply,
"Good morning DOCTOR" On the app
point day he did just as he said he should
do, and when he said Good morning"
to her, she promptly made the reply,
"Good morning, DOCTOR" in loud,
strong voice. She seemed utterly aston
ished herself, but said she felt that what
the doctor said would be true, and firmly
believed that he had wrought miricle
in her cure.

In an Insane Hospital.

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.--On the 2Sd of
September young woman applied for
lodgings at the Temporary Home for
Women, at ST Second Avenue. She
gave the name OF Nellie Blown. Towards
evening she began TO act oueerly. The
dodgers, who are all working women, be-
came alarmed. She was apparently
insane. The next day the matron sent
for an officer and she was taken before
Judge Duffy, at Essex Market Police
Court The Judge became very much
interested. He said she looked like his
sister. He thought she was suffering
from the effects of drugs. He sent her
to Bellevue Hospital for examination.
She remained there for day or two.
The physicians said she was insane.
Reporters went to see her and tried to
unravel the romance of her life, but she
could remember nothing, and there were
all sorts of guesses as to her identity.
From Bellevue she was committed
as insane to the hospital on BlackwelPs
Island. There she remained for ten days
until friends claimed her and she was
released. All these facts were duly
chronicled. The mystery has at last been
solved. Nellie Brown was in the employ
of the World. She feigned insanity and
went 10 Blackwell's for the express pur-
pose of writing up her experiences.
The remarkable part of this story is
that the young woman was able to de-
ceive all the experts. She says, in tell.
ing about it, II took upon myself to
enact the part of a poor, unfortunate,
crazy girl and felt it my duty not to shirk
any of the disagreeable results that
should follow. I became one of the
city's insane wards for that length of
time, experienced much and saw and
heard more of the treatment accorded TO
this helpless class of our population, and
when l had seen and heard enough my
release was promptly secured. felt the
insane ward with pleasure and regret
pleasure that l was once more able to
enjoy the free breath of heaven; regret
that I could not have brought with me
some of the unfortunate women who lived
and suffered with me, and who I am
convinced are just as sane rs I was and
AN now myself But here let me say one
thing: From the moment entered the
insane ward on the island / made no
attempt to keep up the assumed role Of
insanity. talked and acted just as do
in ordinary life. Yet, strange to say, the
more sanely l talked and acted the Graz
ier I was thought to be by all except one
physician, whose kindness and gentle
ways I shall not soon forget"
Miss Brown began the story Of her ex-
periences in the World to-day, but has
not yet given en- insight into life on
Blackwell's Island. AT Bellevue she
was not roughly treated, but she nearly
froze to death for want of coverings.
Her bed was hard as rock, she was fed
on piece of cold boiled beef and potato
and was tod that as she was charity
ward she had no rigA5 TO complain. The
nurses talked so loudly all night that
sleep was impossible. She met two per-
sons there who we're, she thinks, perfectly
sane.

Vanderbilt.
care you going to preach what l want
to hear? ?" asked the old man, sternly.
"I shall try to preach acceptably," )"
answered the clergyman, in an evasiye
manner.
But no sooner had he said the words
than all the manhood within him rose in
revolt, and the spirit of John Knox
seemed calling him to account.
III shall preach the Gospel as believe
and understand it, and if you have any
special sins 1 shall be most likely 10
preach against them.'
"Humph!" said the Commodore, and
ended the interview.
The next day he sent Mr.. Deems q
check 70. $4,000 for not being afraid ia
do his duty. Detroit Free Press.

Hot Water Remedies.

There is no remedy of such general
application, and none so easily attaina.
BILE, as water, and yet nine persons out
of ten will pass by it in an emergency 10
seek for something Of far less efficiency.
There are few cases of illness where
water should not occupy the highest
place as remedial agent. A strip Of
flannel or napkin, folded lengthwise and
dipped in hot water and wrung out, and
then applied around the neck of child
that has the Group, with thick dry flannel
outside, will usually bring relief in ten
minutes. A towel folded several times,
and dipped in hot water, and quickly
wrung and applied over the toothache or
neuralgia, will generally afford prompt
reliei. This treatment in collie works
like magic. l have seen cases that have
resisted all other treatment for hours
yield to this in ten minutes. There is
nothing that so promptly cuts short a
congestion Of the lungs, sore throat, OF
rheumatism, as hot water, when applied
promptly and thoroughly. Tepid water
acts promptly as an emetic, and hot
water, taken freely half an hour before
bedtime, is the best cathartic possible in
the case of constipation, while it has a
most soothing effect upon the stomach
and bowels. This treatment continued q
few months, with proper attention to
diet, will cure any durable case of dys.
pepsia. Headache almost always yields
to the simultaneous application Of hot
water to the feet and the back of the
neck. k.-IaNs journal Of Health.
